The German Shorthaired Pointer, or GSP, is an exceptionally versatile hunting dog that was developed in Germany in the 19th century. Like all pointer breeds, GSPs are very capable of spotting and quietly drawing attention to their quarry. Due to the inclusion of breeds like Bloodhounds and English Pointers, however, GSPs are also excellent trackers who are both fast and agile when pursuing game. This is a boisterous breed that craves interaction from its human companions, making the dogs unparalleled as companions for large and active families.
These dogs are extraordinarily active and outgoing, and without enough vigorous exercise and regular training sessions, their delightful energy can develop into destructive hyperactivity. This book will provide you with all the tools you need to keep your German Shorthaired Pointer entertained and engaged from his first days at home until his final years. Packed with essential knowledge about the GSP, this guidebook will answer all of your most pressing questions, including:
- Is a German Shorthaired Pointer the right breed for me?
- How do I choose the perfect canine companion for my household?
- Which training methods are most effective for GSPs?
- How do I avoid or extinguish common problem behaviors?
